Amazon Prime Video UK: What’s New in August 2020?

Amazon has released some first details of new releases heading to Prime Video UK in August

August will be a quiet month on Prime Video UK leading up to the arrival of The Boys season 2 in the first week of September, but there are still a few things to look forward to before Billy Butcher and co. get back to ridding the world of megalomaniacal superheroes and their enablers.

Towards the end of August on Prime, Stargirl will be streaming for UK viewers. The DC Universe show has received strong reviews and will be back for a second season eventually. If you’re already a fan of DC’s Doom Patrol, it will make for a sweeter and more teen-friendly companion show.

Elsewhere, Keira Knightley’s Official Secrets is worth a watch, and there are some classic bangers being added to the Prime library too, including Gravity, The Wedding Singer, Valerian, Magic Mike XXL and The Notebook – but it wouldn’t be Den of Geek if we didn’t make Jason Statham’s action-packed shark-puncher The Meg our number one recommendation in August. It is very, very silly and an ideal way to pass a free afternoon.

As always, there’ll be an update from Amazon mid-month with details of some additional content being added. We’ll update this list when we get it, so feel free to bookmark this page and check back later, but here’s everything that we know is heading to Prime in August so far…
